Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. In the electrode assembly, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound based on a winding axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes a first active material portion coated with an active material layer and a first uncoated portion not coated with an active material layer along a winding direction. At least a part of the first uncoated portion is defined as an electrode tab by itself. The first uncoated portion includes a first portion adjacent to the core of the electrode assembly, a second portion adjacent to the outer circumference of the electrode assembly, and a third portion interposed between the first portion and the second portion. The first portion or the second portion has a smaller height than the third portion in the winding axis direction.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode assembly, a battery, and a battery pack and a vehicle including the same. In the electrode assembly, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound based on an axis to define a core and an outer circumference. The first electrode includes an uncoated portion at a long side end thereof and exposed out of the separator along a winding axis direction of the electrode assembly. A part of the uncoated portion is bent in a radial direction of the electrode assembly to form a bending surface region that includes overlapping layers of the uncoated portion, and in a partial region of the bending surface region, the number of stacked layers of the uncoated portion is 10 or more in the winding axis direction of the electrode assembly.

Abstract: Disclosed are a suppressant of toxicity such as hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity, induced by cancer chemotherapeutic agent, and a composition of cancer chemotherapeutic agent containing the suppressant. The suppressant of toxicity induced by a cancer chemotherapeutic agent contains xanthorrhizol as an active ingredient. Xanthorrhizol shows an excellent ability in suppressing ill effects generated by dosage of cancer chemotherapeutic agent, such as hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition preventing cancer and treating cancer and inflammation, which is characterized in that including xanthorrhizol as an active principle. Xanthorrhizol not only inhibits mutagenesis and tumor formation, and enhances the activity of detoxification enzyme of carcinogen, induces apoptosis of cancer cell, and suppresses the activity of COX-2 and iNOS which are related to tumor promotion and inflammatory reaction. Thus, a pharmaceutical composition including xanthorrhizol can be utilized for prevention of cancer and treatment of cancer and inflammation.
